Cream the butter and sugar together. Beat in the eggs one at a time along
with the vanilla. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until all is
incorporated. Divide the batter among 3 greased loaf pans approximately 8-

the pans and cool completely on the rack. Wrap in plastic and keep in the
refrigerator. This recipe makes three 2-pound loaves.
Comments: This is my mother’s recipe and is much better than those dark,
heavy fruitcakes you’re probably used to. Incidentally, all her
grandchildren have always called my mother “Gram.”
